Haven't thrown up at all this pregnancy, which I'm glad... feel awful for all the ladies here who have been so so sick. :(
Hahaha I always crave candy too and then I throw it up
Mine is anterior too! Second time! My first was a boy and anterior too... Of course more girls have anterior... But I'm the exception:/ lucky me!!
Surgena! Where the heck do you live, people don't seem very nice, sheesh!! I'm sure you look great! 14 weeks is that awkward time of just feeling big but not pregnant looking...ignore them!!
Better too big than small! Means babies growing and your baby was measuring ahead anyway!
Well they always say the quickest way to lose weight is get the tummy flu...yup I lost over 6 lbs in one day :-/
Are you feeling better today, Rosie? I hope so.
I am still very dizzy, weak and sore but my stomach feels much better :-)
Hahah, I'm an American in the UK. It took me a full year to get used to the fact that they weren't hating on me and thinking I was an idiot - it's just the dry humor and they say what they mean and they aren't scared or embarrassed to. I don't think they meant anything bad by it... the lady who said it is quite motherly towards me (baked me ginger buns early on in pregnancy.) I think she was making an observation but I'm still a sensitive flower! Her daughter is 17 weeks pregnant, but it's her first baby, so I think she can't help but compare. I told her later today, "Hey... short lady [me], not much tummy space, 2nd baby... all it can go is out, thanks!"Quote:

I crave junk too....I love sweets (starburst suregena my fave) and chocolate I also love cheese!!
3m good luck at your scan hun xx
Hope your ok Rosie x
Hi girlys
Good luck tomorrow with your scan 3m
Hoping at least one of us has a wrong gender scan!!! Not me though I saw little mans willy before anything else lol.
Oh poor you Rosie hope your feeling a little better!!!
Yeah suregena British humour is very dry! Just throw some random insult back at them! One of the girls at work today commented on how big I was already! So kind! Like I don't know!!
My reply was well it is my 4th and there must be enough room for baby to lay like a star fish! Lol x
Did it work? I'm asking because right now I'm watching my scan DVD again, trying to decide if what I thought was te nub is the nub, or if its maybe what I'm seeing a little lower down... Lol.Quote:

Holy cow! I went away for a few days (wednesday to Sunday) and y'all add another 20 pages of posts. I want to read them...but it's prolly not going to happen.
I hope everyone is well and enjoyed thanksgiving (for those who are stateside). I just wanted to say hi. And I am looking forward to seeing how the rest of our gang shapes up in regard to our stats. I was noticing its boy heavy in here (although I am sure it had been mentioned). Good news for the boy swayers!! Lol. My scan is next Friday. But I'll be away from Thursday-Thursday visiting my in-laws (about as much fun as ripping out all of my teeth myself). But hopefully it will distract me and the week will go by quickly. I find I am better about not obsessing when I am distracted and being away from home with two little kids is a good way to do it! So hopefully that will work.
Carry on with lots of conversations. I hope I didn't miss anything too juicy. I might have Internet access on vacation, but I am sure I'll miss a lot while I am away then too.
Im being a junk food pig too :( i have eaten a whole tin of caramel and now im onto a tin of condensed milk! I know its so bad because its basically pure sugar, but its so yummy. I have put on 3kg so far (i think thats about 6.6 lbs). I am feeling much better about food though i can now stomach red meat and salad.
You drink the condensed milk by itself?! Wow...that would be thick and tasty, haha. I would just pour it over chocolate cake with caramel.
Hi Ladies....on the topic of food....the good news is today I hit the pizza buffet with my pizza obsessed 2 year old dd while my other 2 dd's were at school and preschool. :) So, that made little girl and me both very happy.
Hehehehe....the gripe of the day is I went to the grocery store after and as soon as I walked in I started having a migraine (I get the nasty visual aura where my vision gets screwed up for about half an hour before the pain starts.). YUCK! I hate migraines....I have dealt with them since puberty off and on basically but I really despise them during pregnancy....as if I didn't have enough to make me feel yucky. I am feeling much better now, though, after a few hours of rest and my meds so thankfully I can go on with my day.
Sorry to hear some of you ladies are still really sick (I still throw up here and there)....and have been dealing quite a bit with other tummy troubles (tmi)....but am better than I was. Only a day and a half till ultrasound time.....does anyone have a time machine where they could just drop me into Thursday morning. Rosie....I hope you are feeling better....I hate stomach bugs...such misery I know.
Oh, still not really feeling baby move yet (there has been a time or two I think it was but nothing absolutely certain like last time)....and I know what it feels like bc this is baby 4.....Gee...come on, baby, pummel me a few good times in the belly and it would make me feel soooooooo much more at ease. Ha!
Oh, can anyone enlighten me on how to get a cute little ticker at the bottom of my posts.....I never have bothered to figure that out and I'm not sure where to start. I'm a little behind with that stuff, I guess. :)
My scan is now tomorrow morning. They had the nerve to yell at me saying I should have been there yesterday...sick or not! Ummmm what?!
Oh my word....they must be nuts....my doc's office ask you to please cancel your appointment and reschedule if you are sick like you've been. Gee, where's the compassion....they would not be at work if they were sick like that. Oh, well, people unfortunately never cease to amaze me. Hope you enjoy your scan....it's always such a miracle seeing that little life on the screen. :)Quote:

Poor you 3girls migraines are the worse hope your feeling better.
Good luck tomorrow Rosie xx
Good luck tomorrow Rosie!!!
My signature desert is caramel pie and all you have to do is boil 2 cans of condensed milk for 3 hours (turning and adding water every 30 min), let sit in fridge for an hour, open the cans, pour into a graham cracker crust, and then top with an entire thing of cool whip or whipped topping and sprinkle with chocolate chips. It is SOOOOOOO good!!!
Hell no! But it kept me from bugging you guys. :)Quote:

On a happy note I think I felt bubs for real this morning, I think he/she was being forecful though as it felt like proper kicks. I figure I probably won't feel the little flutters. It was middle of uterus down low so pretty certain it was baby and I felt it a few times in a row. thnk I was squashing him/her, poor luv lol.
Good luck for the upcoming scans, So jealous!!!
Yep with a spoon :oops:Quote:

click on someones ticker that you like the look of, or google pregnancy tickers, and it will take you to the ticker making website, do all the things there, then copy the BBcode, then come back here, go to settings at the top and then edit signiture on the left and paste it in there :)Quote:

My friend just told me two of her friends were told the wrong sex at ultrasound. Both done at 21 weeks, one was told girl and had a boy, the other was told boy and had girl. I'm totally excited about that. Haha. My scan was done earlier so I have an even better chance right? A girl can dream!
What a shock for those families! I heard it happens more with boys turning into girls because the cord is mistaken for willy.Quote:

Has anyone taken any "bump" pics yet?? I feel pretty huge, I know its my 3rd but Im already getting the awful comments on how huge I am - like I have so much control over it. I feel like they think I must just be eating anything & everything (well maybe I am lol) but really I get big, every baby Ive had has been the same (and I have big babies).. Anyway Ive been googling images and its been comforting to me to know Im not alone.. Anyway, does anyone wanna share their bump pics?? I might take one in the morning as at night Im huge but its all food & water.
Awesome!! Thanks Cinss
Reading now!!!Quote:

The width of the umbiblical cord would surely be thicker then the width of a penis?? Even at birth the penis can't be as wide as an umbilical cord can it? So definitely not at the half way mark in pregnancy? Or is it thinner then the willy would be?
Also, the umbilical cord has 2 separate blood ******s running through it, when I had my scan she changed the view on the machine and you could see the 2 separate blood ******s flowing, so couldn't they just use that see wether they are looking at cord or penis?
I just want to be well prepared for Saturday, if they show me a willy I want to be certain that it IS a willy and not cord.
Looks promising!Quote:

Allowing for some errors it still only gives an accuracy rate of around 50/50 so maybe this one isn't something to place too much hope on.
I'd say the tech would have to be inexperienced, or in a rush, and they may just see part of the cord, not the whole thing, im sure it doesn't happen very much, but human error is always going to be an issue. I'm sure your tech will be very intent on getting it right for you seeing as it is a gender scan you are paying for.Quote:
